I think people’s first impression of Wigfield is that it is just a chain of porno shops, strip clubs, and used auto parts yards. Well, it’s a lot more than that. It’s Pornographers and Strippers and People Who Sell Used Auto parts. ​ Cinnamon (Stripper and Resident of Wigfield), Wigfield: The Can- Do Town That Just May Not. If Amy Sedaris is better known as the sister of public radio superstar David, it’s her own fault. For someone so fabulously talented, she is also remarkably anonymous. It’s likely you’ve seen her — not so likely you knew who she was. She’s done theatre (off-broadway, limited run, forget about a ticket) and a critically acclaimed TV stint ( Strangers With Candy ). She flits in and out of the big screen ( Maid in Manhattan ) and small (Finch’s lookalike girlfriend in “Just Shoot Me”) and if you live in New York, you might have eaten one of her muffins. Yes, muffins. It’s a constant in her bios and not just an attention-getting celebrity trick. She bakes and sells muffins — for $1 a piece. A friend of mine used her for a bridal shower she was hosting — two dozen muffins, $24 bucks — and in a story twist that can only happen in Manhattan, Sedaris apologetically warned she’d had to borrow Sarah Jessica Parker’s oven last-minute when hers blinked out.

Colbert first performed professionally as an understudy for Steve Carell at Second City Chicagowhere his troupe mates included Paul Dinello and Amy Sedariscomedians with whom he developed the sketch comedy series Exit He wrote and performed on the short-lived Dana Carvey Show before collaborating with Sedaris and Dinello again on the cult television series Strangers with Candy. He gained attention for his role on the latter as closeted gay history teacher Chuck Noblet. Colbert's work as a correspondent on Comedy Central's news-parody series The Daily Show gained him wide recognition. Following The Daily Show ' s news-parody concept, The Colbert Report was a parody of personality-driven political opinion shows including The O'Reilly Factorin which he portrayed a caricatured version of conservative political pundits.

  • Il Cinema Dei Fratelli Coen: Declinazioni Del Vuoto 1

    Il Cinema Dei Fratelli Coen: Declinazioni Del Vuoto 1

    Il cinema dei fratelli Coen: declinazioni del vuoto Introduzione Joel e Ethan Coen esordiscono come registi negli anni Ottanta, epoca in cui è lo stesso concetto di autore – e quindi anche quello di regista – a tornare di moda, ma al tempo stesso si trasforma: l’artista non è più creatore, ma imitatore, in un momento storico in cui si riconosce di non aver più nulla da dire. Come infatti sottolinea Buccheri, “non cerca una voce personale, ma uno stile che gli dia visibilità, un’estetica come marchio e come look – si mette in scena, offrendo il proprio corpo allo “scandalo evangelico”, in una deriva dell’autobiografismo politico degli anni Sessanta”1. E in questo giudizio di valore sono coinvolti anche i fratelli Coen che, come Brian De Palma, o Woody Allen, sono spesso stati definiti manieristi; termine inteso in questo contesto come imitatori prima che della natura, di altro cinema a sé precedente. Tuttavia, nonostante critici come Paolo Cerchi Usai abbia riportato, su “Segnocinema”, come “il loro cinema sia senza motivo, ma abbiano deciso di fare ugualmente cinema nel nome della sua inutilità”2, l’attitudine dei due registi è in realtà profondamente critica riguardo al materiale usato: dietro all’apparenza leggera infatti, si nasconde una critica radicale agli stereotipi e simboli della vita americana e in generale alla vita contemporanea, come il consumismo, la ristrettezza mentale della provincia, la ruralità, la libertà dell’arte, la controcultura stessa. I personaggi che portano in scena hanno corpi sgraziati, spesso grotteschi (si pensi a quelli interpretati da Steve Buscemi, uno degli attori feticcio del cinema dei due fratelli), e sono destinati ad un’irrimediabile alienazione, che arriva a distruggerli, persi nelle rete delle rappresentazioni e leggi sociali.

    'Ripley's Believe It Or

    For Immediate Release: BELIEVE IT OR NOT, TRAVEL CHANNEL GREENLIGHTS THE REBOOT OF THE ICONIC ‘RIPLEY’S BELIEVE IT OR NOT!’ HOSTED BY ACTOR BRUCE CAMPBELL Veteran actor Bruce Campbell is executive producer and host of the reboot of “Ripley’s Believe It or Not!” NEW YORK (January 2, 2019) – Ripley’s Believe It or Not! has cornered the market on the extraordinary, the death defying, the odd and the unusual. Now, 100 years after Robert L. Ripley launched the brand, the phrase Believe It or Not! is known globally and has come to symbolize how we marvel at the wonders of our world. Travel Channel is rebooting the iconic series, hosted by veteran actor Bruce Campbell (Evil Dead, Burn Notice), with 10 all-new, one-hour episodes that will showcase the most astonishing, real and one-of-a- kind stories. Currently in production, the series will be shot on location at the famed Ripley Warehouse in Orlando, Florida, and will incorporate incredible stories from all parts of the globe — from Brazil to Baltimore. The series is slated to premiere in summer 2019. As part of the 100th anniversary celebration of Ripley’s Believe It or Not!, Campbell rang in the new year in Times Square with the New Year’s Eve Ball Drop along with millions of new friends. “As an actor, I’ve always been drawn toward material that is more ‘fantastic’ in nature, so I was eager and excited to partner with Travel Channel and Ripley’s Believe It or Not! on this new show,” said Campbell.

Though anecdotal evidence exists, such claims by, or about, these ‘Clever Children’ have not been adequately substantiated and are indicative of a loss of history in relation to electronic music forms (referred to hereafter as Electronica) in popular culture. With the emergence of the Clever Children there is a pressing need to redress this loss of history through academic scholarship that seeks to document and critically reflect on the rhizomatic developments of Electronica and its place within the history of twentieth century music.

From the lowest-budget, most formally audacious or politically radical to the quirky, the offbeat, the cultish and the more conventional, the independent sector has thrived in American cinema in the past two decades, producing a body of work that stands out from the dominant Hollywood mainstream and that includes many of the most distinctive films to have appeared in the USA in recent years. It represents a challenge to Hollywood, although also one that has been embraced by the commercial mainstream to a substantial extent. Major formerly independent distributors such as Miramax and New Line are attached to Hollywood studios (Disney and Time-Warner, respectively), while some prominent directors from the independent sector have been signed up for Hollywood duty. The ‘independence’ of American independent cinema, or exactly what kind of production qualifies for the term, is constantly under question, on a variety of grounds.
